Use ssh-agent with SyncBackPro

Post by backup33 »

This is related to using a password protected private key with the SFTP protocol.
I would like to use an ssh-agent, so I don't have to store the private key password in the SycBackPro configuration.

I tried the standard Windows and the Putty implementations with the corresponding private keys. This doesn't seem to work with none of the available SBP SSH implementations. It is a little strange because normally this works out of the box with SSH.

Is it possible to use an ssh-agent with SycBackPro, so I don't have to store the private key passwords in the SBP configration?
